Trim and flatten the chicken breast slightly for even grilling.

Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, mixed herbs, lime juice, and olive oil, then mix and coat both sides.

Let the chicken breast marinate for at least half an hour.

Slice the avocado in half, scoop out the flesh, and slice it into medium portions.

In a bowl, combine roughly chopped green lettuce and iceberg lettuce, chopped cucumber, chopped tomatoes, sliced onions, and chunks of red and yellow bell peppers, along with the sliced avocado.

Prepare the salad dressing by mixing 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, mixed herbs, juice of half a lime, and chopped cilantro in a bowl.

Lightly grease a cast iron grill pan and heat it.

Grill the marinated chicken breast on medium flame for about 2 to 3 minutes on one side, then flip and grill the other side for another 2 to 3 minutes, brushing with leftover marinade to keep it moist.

Remove the chicken breast from the grill and let it cool slightly.

Just before serving, pour the prepared salad dressing over the salad and toss well for 1 to 2 minutes until combined.

Slice the grilled chicken breast and serve it beside the salad on a bed of lettuce.
